During the next two decades the corporation grew considerably by acquiring hundreds of hospitals and companies including General Care Corporation, General Health Services, Hospital Affiliates International and Health Care Corporation. At the end of 1981 the HCA operated 349 hospitals.

By 1987, the company, with 463 hospitals, spun off 104 hospitals into a separate company. Believing the stock to be undervalued in 1988, the company completed a $5.1 billion leverage buyout to become private. In 1992 HCA became a public corporation again.

The new corporation acquired more organizations and became a comprehensive health care network with 350 hospitals, 145 outpatient centers, 550 home care agencies, several other medical related businesses and 285,000 employees..

After being investigated by Federal agencies in the late 1990s for insurance/accounting issues and paying a fine of $1.7 billion to the government, Columbia/HCA was compelled to revert to its name of Hospital Corporation of America.

In 2006 a group of investors took the company private in a $30 billion leverage buyout. HCA growth strategy today is do acquire or develop more outpatient and imaging centers.
